Youngsters Stepping Up at South Carolina

South Carolina will be down some important pieces from last year's 11-2 squad, but the play of a few youngsters this spring could help ease those departures.
Obviously, the loss of Marcus Lattimore affects the Gamecocks on many different levels, and replacing his on-field presence won't be easy. But rising sophomore running back Mike Davis had the kind of spring the coaches were looking for and he left the spring game as South Carolina's starter.
